At least we know we have six tanks in reserve in case Russia invades.

I think you can relax for a few days, Russia seems to have priorities elsewhere this week. 🇺🇦

These private does get the question whether the army would take them back, considering the Russian are using 1950's tanks as easier to prepare from their stock pile, rather than the more complex modern ones.

Russian antiques may have been sitting in a tank park all that time, but they will be still 'entire'.   Those UK  private tanks may have gun barrels, but their weapons have all been "deactivated".    They cannot be fired, or restored to working condition.  Not great war assets!

You can always put your mouth to the barrel and shout 'bang!' It may induce the Russians to go elsewhere. Given that I read an article a while back on not using slug killer, but training them to go elsewhere, it's not really that far-fetched.

Bill, who does my MOT’s ( ex REME) actually has a Scorpian  light tank. As well as a half track, a light missile carrier, with 2 fibreglass Misiles. A Bedford TK and a Wiley’s jeep.
